(Notice the lack of "Sleep"?)
I'm super-psyched for an awesome New Year's Eve/ New Year tonight: I have silky soft hair after an at-home treatment, a shiny new camera to play with and a pretty see-through mug of good quality flowering jasmine tea to sip as I tinker. I even managed to squeeze in one last recipe and post for Tashcakes!, and I have freshly washed bedsheets to snuggle into later.
... What, did you think I'd be out there doing something interesting and quirky and Tash-ish?
New Year's Eve has never been a night of Going Out And Doing Stuff for me. I think anyone who knows me can agree that I do more than enough of that on normal days: so NYE is one of the rare times I just let myself do Bugger All. No FOMO for me- just kicking back and relaxing, and giving myself a moment to process all of the stuff I've done in the year (but don't worry, this isn't going to be a "Wot I Did This Year Lol Aren't I Amazing" post). As for tomorrow, the first day of the new year itself, I will think about all the things to come in 2015 (or rather panic mildly at the mad things I've signed up for and the things I need to get organised for).
The great thing at the moment is that lots of my friends are beginning to take on the same mentality as me- so instead of feeling guilty about turning down their events, I get to switch off at home knowing that they're doing the same thing! There is plenty to do in the city on a night like this- but you know what? This is London, and there is always plenty to do, every single day and night of the year. So just once a year- just for tonight- I'd just prefer to drink my tea, try not to break my new toys and look forward to clean sheets.
A happy new year to you all- as I said in Tashcakes!, "go try new foods, experience new things and most importantly: have fun!"
Long time no see weird girl, first of all, I wish you an amazing year!
ReplyDeleteNow...I'm glad to find someone else that stays at home in NYE. I kinda do the same but here it's summer so instead of tea I have ice cream xD and the 31 I can't help thinking back and forth between what i've done and what I didn't in the past year...I tend to be a little melancholic...
I hope u enjoy your new camera and don't forget to upload some pictures to the blog n.n
Hugs! (*-*)
